General Practice

A crown is an extremely durable full cast tooth restoration that is used to protect a weak (heavily restored or root canal treated), worn out or cracked tooth or to disguise a discoloured tooth. From a function perspective, we can address worn, flat or shorter teeth, or teeth that have repeatedly broken or cracked, and been patched up and repaired over and over. To break that cycle, having a crown can prevent frequent visits to repair a tooth.
